Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the clinical and cost-effectiveness of electroacupuncture versus exercise for treating knee osteoarthritis (KOA) in middle-aged and older patients, as both therapies show substantial benefits but lack clear comparison data.
- A randomized controlled trial will involve 196 KOA patients, assigning them equally to either an electroacupuncture group (receiving treatment 3 times a week for 8 weeks) or an exercise group (participating in neuromuscular training twice a week for 8 weeks), with education on KOA management given to both groups.
- Results will assess various outcomes, including pain relief and quality of life, to offer insights on the effectiveness of each treatment option and help tailor therapies to meet individual patient needs

Time-resolved optoacoustic technique offers a new ingredient in noninvasive monitoring of biological tissues. Due to the heterogeneous property of biotissue, different level of optical energy depositions generates different strength of the acoustic signal across the tissue. This makes it possible to probe the functional information tomographically inside the biological tissue.
